An exciting opportunity has arisen to work in high-profile, fast-paced roles at the heart of Ofqual, the exams regulator. The PA to the Chief Regulator and the Chair, and the PA to the Deputy Chief Regulator are both vital roles providing full executive support to ensure the smooth running of each office.

Responsibilities will include supporting the Chief Regulator and the Chair/the Deputy Chief Regulator in all aspects of their work and management of their offices, including managing the respective diary/diaries and ensuring that they are well briefed and prepared ahead of meetings. The roles will also involve dealing with correspondence, managing meetings, making travel arrangements, and attending internal and external meetings/events as required.

The successful candidates will be flexible, have strong communication skills and an excellent standard of written English, have excellent administrative and IT skills, as well as being pro-active and able to prioritise their own workload with minimal supervision, and keeping one step ahead. The ability to act with discretion and handle confidential information sensitively is essential.
